A husband and wife who work for the circus go to an adoption agency looking to adopt a child, but the social worker isnt sure theyll be fit for the job.
To convince her, the couple shows the social worker photos of their two storey house, which is clean, well maintained and equipped with a beautiful nursery.
She is satisfied for a moment before raising concerns about the kind of education a child would receive while in the couples care.
The husband says calmly, Weve arranged for a full-time tutor who will teach the child all the usual subjects along with French, Mandarin, and computer skills.
The social worker is also pleased by this but then expresses concern about a child being raised in a circus environment.
This time the wife explains, Our nanny is a certified expert in paediatric care, welfare, and diet.
The social worker is finally fully satisfied so she asks the couple, What age child are you hoping to adopt?
The husband answers with a shrug, It doesnt really matter, as long as the kid fits in the cannon.
